Help!!!! is my Haldex shot?

First I was getting a resistance like brakes when backing up and turning at the same time. Now moving forward with the wheels turned all the way right or left I get a moaning sound from the rear and the inside rear wheel hops.
Is the haldex history or does it need a fluid change?
I have 18 k miles any feedback appreciated.

Check your brakes as well, the rears could be stuck clamped to the rotor

Doesn't sound like the haldex

From your discription I think you have a Differintial problem. The haldex really doesn't do anything until a front wheel slip is detected. Try and jack the rear of your car off the ground and spin one of the wheels...the other should spin in the reverse direction, if it doesn't it's probably your rear diff.
